VOLUME LVIH. No. 19. Final Arrangements Are! Completed At Meet- ing Held Here Last ma | Definite plans were formulated fest wight for the President's Ball te be givea on January 30 at the Key West Country Club, and those attending the meeting held in | office of Mayor H..C..Galey -en- tered into the spirit of *he plans and responded with @ will to calls ) for activities in handling the va- rious items on the program. Mayor Galey, who presided, ex- pressed the belief that there will | be many who would gladly attend the ball at the Country O!ub, but} who for various reasons could not find it convenient to do so, and i suggested that another dance be itheir comrades at March field, vear | given at the Cuban Club on Jan- uary 29, and another later on at} the Casa Marina. j Peter Schutt, manager of the Casa Marina, said that he believed that by that time the novelty would have worn off and the at- tendance would be very small. He suggested that he hand’e the mat- ter of the guests at the hotel and believed that he will have a large attendance from the hostelry at the Country Club. He pointed ut that should the ball giyen at the hotel on Satutday; January 30, it would have’ to come to an end at midnight. Carrero To Arrange Dance ¥ The matter of the dance on Jan- wary 29 at the Cuban Club was left to Oswaldo Carrero, who said that he wou'd make arrangements; for securing the club’s dancing; salon, but believed that the price | of tickets should not be the same} as those for the Country Club. { This was agreed upon. Discussing the cause for which the dances are to be given, both Mayor Galey and Dr. Warren said that there were other diseases | which needed treatment, and need- ed it badly, and these should be! treated. - Mayor Galey pointed out that there was still some funds on hand from the previous ball and he was going to find out if these funds and the 70 percent from the coming functions could not be! used for the treatment of children j, who were suffering from diseases | other than infantile paralysis, but} were in some cases in worse con- | dition than sufferers from Poli-, omyelitis, Dr. Wm. R. Warren heartily agreed to this. To Send Telegram It was agreed by all present that the usual telegram of congratu-; lation be sent to the president | and a collection of 25 cents from | exch member of the general com- } mittee present was taken for this; purpose. Some of those present contributed in the names of em- ployes and members of their re-| spective families. { The mayor announced that the members of the committees to be- come part of the general activi-} ties would be selected today and personally named by him and so; advised.
